Mercedes S500. detailing and ceramic coating.

Mercedes S500, 2007 .
10 years of very tough (in terms of care) operation, the car was in the public service and was washed 1-2 times a day negligently. We were given the task to put the car into an ideal state.

Engine detailing. Cleaners Koch-Chemie.
We forgot to make photo “before” (but believe me, there was a hell), we remembered about making photo when under the hood was already splashed with Golden Star.
In addition to protecting the engine and all kinds of plastic linings below, we also partially removed the wheel arch liners.

The engine took about 5.5 hours to clean. Result:

Further was dry cleaning of disks, arches, a body, and apertures – it’s a standard.

The front seats and the rear seat were removed.
